title: [Cervico-thoracic liposarcoma in an HIV patient].
abstract: Association between cervico-thoracic liposarcoma and HIV infection is uncommon. The etiopathology remains unclear and clinical symptoms can be various, often not very evident or absolutely absent. Preoperative diagnosis is based on modern imaging techniques. In selected cases, the ideal procedure is surgical treatment which allows good long-term results. A case of cervico-thoracic liposarcoma in HIV patient is presented.
